Since a ton is 2000 pounds
You would divide 13600 pounds in half so your answer would be
C>>>6.8 tons
5/6=0.83~
Meanwhile 3/4=0.75.
5/6 is bigger than 3/4.
Good luck!
Answer:
The equation of the line is;
3y = 2x-8
Step-by-step explanation:
Firstly, we need the to get the slope of the given line
To do this, we will write the equation of the line in the standard form
the standard form
is;
y = mx + b
where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept
y -4 = 2/3(x-3)
y -4 = 2x/3 - 2
y = 2x/3 -2 + 4
y = 2x/3 + 2
with respect to the given equation, the slope of the line is 2/3
Mathematically, when two lines are parallel, the slopes of the line are equal
So now, we want to find the equation of the line that has a slope of 2/3 and passes through the point (1,-2)
so;
y = 2x/3 + b
So substitute the values of (1,-2)
1 for x and -2 for y
-2 = 2/3(1) + b
-2 = 2/3 + b
b = -2 - 2/3
b = (-6-2)/3 = -8/3
So the equation of that line is;
y = 2/3x - 8/3
Multiply through by 3
3y = 2x - 8
This is an isosceles triangle, so both legs are of length 5√2.
Use the Pyth. Thm. to find the length of the hypotenuse. Square 5√2 and double the result: 25(2) = 50; twice 50 is 100. The square of the length of the hyp. is 100, and so the length of the hyp is sqrt(100), or 10 (answer).
